Summary
Unlock a transformative opportunity to commemorate your community's rich history through a unique funding initiative aimed at enhancing local heritage. This program invites nonprofits, academic institutions, and government entities across the United States to apply for funding that supports the creation of historical roadside markers.
Designed to honor significant people, places, and events that have shaped your community, these markers serve as educational resources and powerful tools for civic pride.
Eligible projects must focus on historical subjects that occurred over a century ago, making this a chance to highlight narratives that might otherwise go unrecognized. Award amounts cover the full cost of the markers, installation poles, and shipping, providing communities with a means to visibly celebrate their heritage without the burden of upfront expenses.
Although project proponents are responsible for installation and site preparation costs, there is no cash match requirement, making this funding accessible and straightforward.

It is an ideal opportunity for organizations looking to engage with historians, educators, and local stakeholders to preserve and share their stories.
By participating, applicants not only receive financial support but also contribute to a lasting legacy that enriches community identity and fosters heritage tourism.
Don’t miss this chance to elevate your community's narrative and create a lasting impact. This funding opportunity is more than just a grant; it’s a step towards preserving the stories that define who we are. Engage with this initiative today and transform your vision of historical recognition into reality.
